HC Deb 09 June 1936 vol 313 c44W
Mr. BROAD

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will state the number of milk depots in England and Wales now owned by the Milk Marketing Board; and what is the average number of gallons handled per month at these depots?

Mr. ELLIOT

I am informed by the Milk Marketing Board that they have five factories in operation in England and Wales for the manufacture of milk products and that the total average monthly quantity of milk handled is approximately one million gallons. In addition, they have three other factories which are not at present in operation.
